I am developing a software that generates bills for customers in VB.Net. Am using vs2010 on windows 7 and connecting my PC to Android cell phone. I want to send sms to all customers from my application through the cell phone. The cell phone of course has SIM card to call and send sms. I need the code that does this job.

You need to send AT commands to the modem port on which your cell phone is connected, if your PC is XP or Vista. If it's Win 7 or 8, you can use the Windows Mobile Broadband API to send an SMS. If you're developing in the-interface-formerly-known-as-Metro, there is another API equivalent to MB API.

Have you considered integrating with Twilio? They even have some handy .NET libraries making this dropdead easy.

I want to develop a socket based chatting app in Titanium compatible with Android, iPhone and Blackberry.
Please give me suggestion about it
If you want a "socket based chatting app", then you've already made decisions about the implementation, and so you really just need to know the interface for implementing it. Try reading the fantastic manual, it is very detailed on how to use sockets.
http://docs.appcelerator.com/titanium/3.0/#!/api/Titanium.Network.Socket.TCP
You'll need to roll your own server side to accept the socket connections, and your own protocol for the communications. Or adhere to an existing protocol.
Or you can use the existing, working Ti.Cloud sample I created. It is the Titanium specific version of what Hini linked at nodeacs.cloud.appcelerator.com --
https://github.com/appcelerator-modules/ti.cloud/tree/master/commonjs/example/windows/chats
You can use Titanium along with Node ACS to create the application.
Here is a sample chat application tutorial. I hope it helps you.

i would like make a simple application on iphone had a client and server
the app should let me send update from client to server and send update from server to client
the Question is... what should i read about to learn the major and important thing to start doing this application.
Check out gamekit. Connecting to the game network will allow your apps to talk to each other sending small data packets back and forth.
http://imagineric.ericd.net/2011/04/20/ios-gamekit-iphone-to-iphone-communication/
or you can use a TCP socket setup and communicate that way.

If the ios devices are on the same network it can work from one to the other.
If they are on other networks you will need a central server.

I am newbie to windows-8 phone development.
My first assignment is to develop mediaplayer for windows 8 phone.
can anyone guide me how should I proceed?
The requirement for mediaplayer is as follows.
Mediaplayer should have ability to stream the music from server.
We need to cache last played music-track by mediaplayer.
functionality like playnext,playprev,playlist etc..
Waiting for your reply.
what you have is a basic exercise in coding.
Take a nice long read through the Media Overview for Windows Phone. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff402550(VS.92).aspx . You'll have to implement your cache, probably in isolated storage. The playnext, playprevious you'll have to do as well.
Work through some of the basic tutorials up at genapp in the phone section for some free training. http://bit.ly/30tolaunch .

Use TV remote over HDMI as a control GUI [closed]

I want to connect a linux PC with HDMI output to my (Samsung) TV.
This allows to show a screen on the TV.
How can I use the TV's remote as an input device, sent over HDMI to control the PC?
Or in other words, can I make a simple user interface which is shown on the TV and is controlled with the remote control?
I mainly imagine using the 4 arrow-buttons and the OK to navigate and choose stuff.
Any links to doc or libraries (Java preferred) are welcome.
The protocol used to send the remote control signals is called CEC. In order to make use of it you will need hardware which supports it, and have drivers for that hardware.
Lacking any more specific information about the hardware you are using, I suggest starting at this page about CEC support on the Raspberry Pi

Regarding GPS. Is there a way to locate a phone number using gps? Without installing any apps to their cell phone [closed]

My question is regarding GPS.
Is there a way to locate a phone number using gps? Without installing any apps to their cell phone.
I am interested in both Windows Mobile and iPhone. But please do include generic replies also.
No, you can't.
You see, GPS and phones are two completely disparate technologies - nevermind that there are some multi-function devices (e.g. smartphones) which contain both. There is no generic way to connect one to the other that would work on all devices without custom software (i.e. without installing your app).
That said, you could create an app which checks the GPS location of the device it's on, checks the device's phone number, and reports this pair back to you over some kind of network connection (GPRS, 3G, WiFi, carrier pigeon, what-have-you). You'd need to update the GPS position from time to time as it changes, whereas the phone number tends to stay the same.
You'll need to use some kind of data channel as GPS is an unidirectional broadcast protocol (it's receive-only, there is no way to send a message through it).
Note also that you'll need the user's permission and cooperation in installing the app - firstly, the app won't install by itself as most devices have safeguards preventing automatic installs; and second, installing software without permission could land you in legal trouble (unauthorized access and all that).
